WOYWW

Firstly, thanks for all your replies about food for the crop. I am sure we can cope with any that have come in so far - don't forget to let me know if you haven't already done so.
June 1st is getting closer! I hope we manage a lovely sunny day like we have had for the last few days - it has been glorious hasn't it.

We spent a few days in Llandudno and it couldn't have been better.

Bodnant was stunning, although the laburnum arch wasn't quite out yet.




Llandudno Great Orme tram ride took us to the top to see the most lovely views around the coast.
In the walled garden of Penryn Castle the thrushes sang their hearts out, providing a stunning, tuneful background to such a lovely spot. I can't say the same for the "castle". It has an amazing view across to the coast and Snowdonia but I found the inside quite oppressive even though it had some fascinating details and excellent guides.
I thought you might like to see a few photos....









My desk has seen little action - except for a tiny bit of finishing off work on my ATCs.

I will be taking them to the crop for anyone there who would like one, and, of course, there will be one for my "pay it forward" buddy as described in Julia's post here.

Have a great week.
See you soon.

I'm pleased you had such a lovely break, goodness the weather has been fantastic - it would be lovely if it was a dry day for the Crop, but even if it does rain, there'll be lots of happiness inside the hall! Lovely little peek of your ATCs, I may have one or two as well ;-)

Lovely photos. The ATCs look stunning - I would love to swap with you at the crop, but I am bringing bookmarks for everyone instead of ATCs - I hope that is OK? Happy WOYWW. Have a great week. With love and God Bless, Caro x (#18)

WOW, your trip photos are incredible. I am super amazed and impressed. Just lovely views.

Your ATCs put mine to shame. Yours are already lovely, from the little bit I could see. Happy WOYWW from #2.

Dear Jo, oh THANK YOU, for your pop up window box, I love them so ... they’re stable and talk to iPad which embedded don’t since last update, and embedded is default setting,

LOVED seeing Bodnant Gardens, we went about same time in 2012, the laburnum was just bursting out but good week or so off really cascading beauty. Didn’t see that castle, though. Its really great. Would love to be at crop but hope to send some for exchange, if get my act together early enough to mail over there.

Happy belated WOYWW, Shaz in Oz.x #20
